In my experience anger is a defense mechanism against experiencing sadness - sadness caused by loss, disappointment, wishing you could communicate with someone but not knowing how...essentially by the nature of this reality, which is unpredictable, constantly changing, full of ups and downs. Go deeply into the sensations and thoughts that accompany your anger by sitting straight, controlling your breathing, being aware of whatever arises. What I bet you'll find is that your anger gives way to compassion for yourself and for all the other people trying to figure out how to live in this crazy world. Best of luck.
